Agents of Change: Direct Action Training Series

Training

We're excited that you're interested in joining us for Agents of Change: Direct Action Training Series! Agents of Change is a training series and community-building opportunity that will teach you how to plan safe and successful direct actions and organize with others for the long term. The series includes a kickoff event, three webinars, an Action Lab where we'll teach concrete skills like de-escalation, and an action that we all do together. 

We ask that you commit to attending all the events (except the optional kickoff event) so that we can build a training community with each other. Please save the dates in your calendar! 

If you have any questions, please reach out to Alice, the training series coordinator, at alicemarabe@gmail.com.

Register as a group or as an individual

We're inviting folks who belong to a group (whether that's an organizing/activist group, a faith community, or even a friend group) to attend the training with that group. This means you'll participate in the Action Lab and action as a team, as well as self-organize to do homework assignments in between webinars. To register as a group, please pick a group leader and enter their name in the form below. This person will be responsible for making sure the group meets for activities and will be the point of contact with the training team.

If you're not part of a group, no worries -- we'd love for you to join us as an individual! We'll support you in finding folks who will have your back at this action, and hopefully future actions too.
